APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: This Month
BUDGET RANGE: 200-300
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Streaming 720p Mkv content from Windows based PCs around my home network.
PARTS NOT REQUIRED: Keyboard, Mouse, OS, Monitor
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: tigerdirect, newegg, amazon
PARTS PREFERENCES: N/A
MONITOR RESOLUTION: 1920x1080, 47in 1080p LCD
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Right now I'm using the ps3 media server, and since the ps3 doesn't natively support the mkv container, my desktop has to transcode the file before sending it. When I fast forward and rewind, or skip scenes it will stutter and audio will go out of sync or it will loose connection.
From what I've read, I believe that XBMC Live will be able to stream this type of content flawlessly if the proper build is done. I basically need to know what type of cpu, gpu, and mobo I need to get so that it was meet my needs and be compatible with XBMC Live.
